Who is Farm My School?
Farm My School is a groundbreaking model of food education that transforms underutilised land within schools into regenerative market gardens that feed, educate, and connect communities.
Inspired by a vision for a healthier future for our communities and planet. We're redefining how farming and food production can shape education, inspire, and foster stronger connections within communities.
Farm My School's unique approach goes beyond farming - it’s about transforming the way we educate, engage and consume food.
With two sites operational and thriving, one on the Bellarine and the other in Colac. Our model is proven – and we are ready to scale!

There is a growing recognition of the need to reorient food systems so that they address food insecurity and environmental degradation. Communities are the key to localising food in an equitable way. Schools provide a unique opportunity to engage children, families and communities in promoting healthy food systems.
This project is about education and engagement and being able to embed sustainable regenerative farming practices into our curriculum. It's giving our students great insights into food production.
Our Pilot Program
Farm My School has demonstrated that schools can become thriving centres of regenerative food production, learning and community connection. We've brought food production back into the heart of our communities.
Across our Bellarine and Colac sites, we have grown and distributed more than 39,000 kg of fresh, seasonal produce, expanded affordable veggie box programs and supplied local markets, farm gates, classrooms and school canteens.
